HAWAII ART - Mosaics

Feel and experience the Hawaii way of life and thinking. The Hawaiian concepts of pono, aloha, aina, ohana and mana are crucial to understanding how Hawaii has consistently ranked as the least stressed and happiest state in America. This art is to help bring you to that state of well-being!

Living pono means living “with a conscious decision to do the right thing in terms of self, others, and the environment.” Aina means land. Hawaiians see their identities and well-being entwined with the land, and so respecting it and living in it are of the utmost importance. Ohana means family. Hawaiians recognize that we all came from the same root and thus we're all part of the same family. Mana is a life energy that flows through all things and is highly individual.
